He superannuated on 31/12/2004. Till that date, no charge-sheet was issued or served upon him. On 18/01/2005 orders were issued that in view of the pendency of a vigilance case, provisional pension was sanctioned withholding Death-cum-Retirement Gratuity/CVP till conclusion of the vigilance case. This order was totally unjustified and based on a non-est ground as no departmental proceeding had been initiated till superannuation.
